OVERVIEW

High-Performance Weldcraft 10N46 Alumina Nozzles

The Weldcraft 10N46 Alumina Nozzle is a premium consumable designed for professional TIG welding applications. This #8 size nozzle features a 1/2-inch (12.7mm) bore, making it an excellent choice for medium-to-heavy duty welding tasks where adequate gas coverage is essential. Manufactured from high-grade alumina ceramic, these nozzles are engineered to withstand the intense heat cycles associated with Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) without succumbing to thermal shock or cracking. This durability ensures that welders can maintain productivity with fewer interruptions for consumable replacements.

Compatibility is a key feature of the 10N46 nozzle. It is designed to fit industry-standard 17, 18, and 26 series TIG torches, also known as the "3 Series" consumables. This universal fitment allows it to work seamlessly with torches from Weldcraft, Miller, CK Worldwide, Lincoln Electric, and other major brands. Whether you are using an air-cooled 17 or 26 torch or a water-cooled 18 torch, this nozzle provides a secure fit and reliable performance. The standardized threading ensures quick changeovers, allowing operators to switch cup sizes efficiently based on the joint configuration.

At Josef Gas, we understand the importance of reliable welding supplies. These nozzles are sold in a convenient pack of 10, ensuring that your shop is always stocked and ready for production. The alumina material not only resists heat but also offers high impact resistance compared to lower-grade ceramics. This toughness is particularly beneficial in busy workshop environments where torches may be set down roughly. Additionally, the material's thermal conductivity aids in drawing heat away from the collet body and torch head, contributing to the overall longevity of your torch setup.

Choosing genuine Weldcraft parts means investing in consistency. Each nozzle is manufactured to tight tolerances, ensuring a uniform gas outlet that promotes stable shielding gas flow. This stability is crucial for achieving X-ray quality welds, particularly on sensitive materials like stainless steel and aluminum. Upgrade your TIG torch consumables with the Weldcraft 10N46 and experience the difference in durability and performance.
